The game uses a third-person over-the-shoulder view as you advance through linear mission stages, gather intel, and eliminate hostile forces. Alongside standard pistols, SMGs, and sniper rifles, the taser is a signature tool that can stun and ignite enemies. Many stages reward careful movement, use of cover, and flanking rather than direct firefights. Progress is mission-based, with objectives such as infiltration, rescue, pursuit, and boss encounters.

Gabe Logan

The main protagonist, a trained agent tasked with stopping the bioweapon conspiracy.

Lian Xing

Gabe's key partner and support operative, providing intelligence and coordination.

Save taser ammo for high-threat targets or quick crowd control. When enemies group up, use cover and pick them off one by one instead of rushing forward. In stealth-heavy sections, take out patrols and alarm points early to keep pressure low. Sniper rifles are useful for clearing distant guards before entering tight interiors.
